About
Painting by Lori Loebelsohn
“Bike Montclair” was founded in 2002 [the name was changed in 2009] with the idea that Montclair could one day become a safe haven for walking and bicycling. Today, we’re a small, dedicated and growing group of volunteers that envisions bicycling and walking as a safe, appealing and feasible choice for all users and all trips, building a strong community fabric on a more human scale. We eagerly seek new members from Montclair and surrounding communities.
Bike&Walk Montclair is a non-profit, non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization. All memberships and contributions are tax-deductible.
Mission
The mission of Bike&Walk Montclair is to create a bicycle-friendly and walkable Montclair through advocacy, education, and encouragement. Through these means, our aim is to improve our health, clean our air, make our streets safer and improve our overall quality of life.
